Pleasantville to Cold Spring - CANCELLED

Submitted by GYang on Thu, 08/25/2011 - 11:08pm

With Sunday riding out, join me on our 60 mile, A-21 ride to Cold Spring and beat the rain before it hits in the afternoon.

We plan to leave GC Station on the 7:48 am train, arrive in Cold Spring and take the 2:05 train back to the City. Tomorrow will make the go/no go call but also may chose the option to take the 6:48 am train to get the ride done an hour earlier.

Cleaning out my closet. I have three seat wedges to give away. One is a small wedge by Topeak, only used a few times  (I don't know how anyone fits gear in there - I ended up buying the big wedge). Shoot me an email and you can pick it up on the Upper West Side.
